Hi Arsenio!

> What sorts of Korean food?


Any, but nothing deep-fried. Nearly all the side-dishes, avoid anything
with a clearly sweet taste to it and the red sauces (contain sugar and
starch) - and just take small amounts of rice. Fish, meat, dubu -
that's ok, guk, chongol, but no chorim! (usually much soysauce with
loads of sugar - and soy-sauce is often sweetened nowadays. Sometimes
with fructosis, so, if there's no problem - take that kind.)

> My favorite is Bib bim bop. I'm not sure that low carb.


I'm sure it isn't - but it's low-fat. As I said, I only avoid the
deep-fried stuff (most of the time ;-)) and enjoy all the other dishes
as I don't have any problems with carbs.

Ciao, Sanne.
